For the 14th day of Ligue 1, Nantes inflicted its first defeat on Nice (1-0) of the season. Nice, which was the only club still undefeated in Ligue 1, remains 2nd behind PSG but the Parisians have the opportunity to take a four-point lead in the event of a victory at Le Havre on Sunday (1:00 p.m.).
Before Florent Mollet’s goal on Saturday, the Aiglons had never even been behind this season, 13 matches and 24 minutes, erasing Bordeaux’s record in 1984-85. Goalkeeper Marcin Bulka was aiming for another Bordeaux record: that of invincibility held by Gaëtan Huard, Bordeaux goalkeeper who had spent, between December 1992 and April 1993, more than 13 matches (1,176 minutes) without conceding a goal. All this was shattered on Saturday evening at La Beaujoire when Nice conceded only their fifth goal this season. United and relying on its goalkeeper Alban Lafont, FC Nantes then held on to its victory to climb to 8th place (18 points).
Appointed on Wednesday, Gourvennec successfully completed his baptism of fire against the best defense in the championship.
Lens in 6th position
At the end of the afternoon, Lens had regained color after its rout at Arsenal (6-0), synonymous with elimination in the Champions League, by beating OL, who have parted ways with their coach Fabio Grosso. This victory allows the Artesian club to stay in the right place, in sixth place (22 points) in the championship, one step behind Reims which beat Strasbourg on Friday evening (2-1) and Lille which hosts Metz on Sunday (5:05 p.m.) .
Before playing their Europa League qualifier against Sevilla on December 12, Lens confirms its good pace after a very complicated start to the season. After suffering four defeats and a draw in the first five matches, the Sang et Or went nine matches without defeat and have been undefeated since their setback against Metz on September 16.
